Induction by repeated red-light (R) pulses of the
accumulation of CAB3-driven GUS activity in
cue mutant seedlings. A pulse of light of 11 μmol
photons m−2 s−1 was given for 15 min every
6 h from germination. Otherwise the seedlings remained in the
dark. GUS activity was measured after 7 d, in three samples of six
seedlings each. The number above each genotype represents the
derepression by the pulses or the ratio of GUS activity following a
red-light pulse to the dark (D) value. Error bars =
sd. MU, 4-Methylumbelliferyl
